Because of the Corsham General Election, the candidates for the Chippenham constituency have been doing all they can to be out and about. Have you spotted them canvassing in your area of Corsham yet, flocked by supporters?

Have you spotted any of the prospective MPs down your street?
Comment below if you have seen a prospective MP in your part of Corsham or if you are a prospective MP and want to tell us when you will be in Corsham and willing for a chat with local Corsham people. Have you been helping to canvass in Corsham and what has the response been like?
Already I’ve seen Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones the Conservative MP canvassing in my village and going door to door. Have you spotted Greg Lovell for Labour or Duncan Hames for the Liberal Democrats?
Who have you found out and about in your part of Corsham and did they manage to sway your vote?
I have been keeping track of some of the prospective candidates in our area on Twitter who are always ‘tweeting’ where they are headed and I have been keeping an eye out for mentions of Corsham.
If you have seen anyone out and about comment below or add some photos and let’s see what they are up to and if our little town is getting any attention during the general election!
This is Candidate Watch where we see how much our prospective members of parliament are canvassing in our area. Does it effect which way you vote?

ReportWilfred Emmanuel-Jones came to visit us last Friday and my 19 year old son was given a leaflet which he read. Shamefully my son was not going to vote "they are all the same" he said despite threats and lectures from us we could not change his mind. After reading the leaflet and seeing Wilfred he said "oh I'll vote for him". So many people don't vote, your vote is your voice and how can anyone complain about a policy they don't agree with if they just can't be bothered to pop down the local village hall or school. It's nice to see the candidates out and about and have a chance to talk to them face to face. As my daughter said recently about the election "it's all so exciting".
